The XCG-CP510 GS Cmos Gige camera with 4-way polarised light detection simplifies stress inspection, improves contrast and allows scratch and object detection. To extract the best-possible image from the sensor, the design of the module has been optimised and outputs 5.1 MP polarised B/W images at 23 fps, transmitted over a Gige interface. The camera will be available in mass-production quantities from November 2018. Additionally, an exclusive polarised-camera SDK will be made available to speed and simplify the development of polarisedlight applications for this hardware. Usage scenarios that would benefit the new camera category include stress inspection, contrast improvement, scratch detection as well as object detection, removal and enhancement from a single image capture. The manufacturer is targeting a wide range of applications – from glass inspection to electronics – as well as the ITS and security sectors. The image sensor is a 2/3-type Pregius GS Cmos sensor and uses four different angled polarisers, with each pixel polarised for either 90°, 45°, 135° or 0°. A fourpixel (2 x 2) calculation unit is then created to capture light in four planes. The small footprint of this cubic camera also includes multiple trigger modes: edge detection, pulse width detection, bulk trigger, sequential trigger, free set sequence and a burst-trigger function. Additionally, the module can be fired via hardware or software triggers or via the IEEE1588 precision timing protocol, with the unit capable of acting as either a slave or dynamically assigned master device. The camera also achieves a greater sensitivity with improved extinction ratio through Wire Grid Polariser technology, which places the on-chip polariser beneath an on-chip lens. Sony, Hall 1, Booth C37 The telecentric Swir lens by Sill Optics is designed for a spectral range between 900 and 1.700 nm. The lens is suitable for hyperspectral imaging with a wide wavelength range. Beside the bi-telecentric lens with a magnification of 0.33, the manufacturer offers an entocentric Swir lens with a focal length of 50 mm additionally. There is also a new product series for white light applications which enables the pixel sizes decrease even for color sensors. That is Scan camera 4096 pixels per channel The prism-based RGB color line scan camera (Sweep +SW-4000T-10GE) is based on a backwards compatible 10GBase-T Gige Vision interface delivering 10 Gbps output. The camera is backwards compatible to NBase-T (5 and 2.5 Gbps) and 1000Base-T (1 Gbps). With a resolution of 4096 pixels per channel and a maximum speed over 100 kHz (100,000 lines/s) this camera is designed to cover a wide range of industrial line scan imaging applications – from the lowest to the fastest speeds. the reason why some of the lenses are offered as a “color” version, that has a particularly well broadband color correction and thus a high spatial frequency. Another example in the visible wavelength range is the combination of focus tunable telecentric lenses with advanced coaxial light coupling telecentric lenses. This development offers advantages for surface observations at several focal planes, whereby shading at the detection plane is prevented and a very good edge detection is possible because of the collimated illumination beam path. Last year, a modular The company has added a new highspeed trilinear Cmos color line scan camera (SW- 4000TL-PMCL) to its Sweep Series camera family. It features 4 K (4096 pixels) resolution and a maximum full line rate of 66 kHz for 24-bit non-interpolated RGB output. Features include horizontal and vertical binning, built-in color space conversion functions as well as direct encoder connection and auto-detection of scan direction. system for lenses with field of view larger than 60 mm was presented, whereby the beam splitter can be changed by the customer himself and a retardation plate can be inserted into the lens. This will be complemented now by a liquid lens, so that several planes can be illuminated as well as imaged very quickly. The illumination beam path is not affected while tuning the liquid lens. Sill Optics, Hall 1, Booth H12 Among the new cameras also on display are new 12.4-MP low noise/high performance industrial area scan cameras belonging to the Spark Series. These cameras utilize the Sony Pregius IMX304 Cmos image sensor and include both color and monochrome models. Jai, Hall 1, Booth F50 Visual quality assurance Installation without the help of experts WE PROVIDE ALL-IN-ONE SERVICE FOR YOU. Inspekto will show how quick, easy and affordable the future of visual quality assurance (QA) will be with Autonomous Machine Vision. The plug&inspect technology means that employees in the manufacturing facility can take the system out of the box and install it in minutes, on their own, without any help from a systems integrator and without the long process associated with setting up QA solutions today. Systems powered by this technology provide full autonomy to the manufacturing plant: systems immediately self-adapt to any changes in the inspected object environment, such as changes in light conditions and object location or orientation, without any intervention whatsoever. The system’s machine vision and artificial intelligence capabilities mean that manufacturers can also independently change the object being inspected and the QA system, or even move the system to another production line altogether, on their own, in minutes, with no need for any external experts.

Exhibition Highlights in Englisch Seite 11 CNC vision measuring system Made to meet European demands The new CNC vision measuring system Quickvision Active by Mitutoyo is offered in two measuring ranges. Additionally, the customer has the choice of two different models with or without touch probe. The new vision measuring solution is custom-tailored to the demands of European industry customers and laboratory applica - tions alike. It is designed for measuring small to midsize workpieces. However, the concept did not only aim to meet special requirements but – at a very competitive price – also to grant the customer a high value. The new system enters the market in a choice of two different measurement ranges: as „202“ model with 250 x 200 x 150 mm and as „404“ with 400 x 400 x 200 mm. Both variants are additionally available with a touch probe for tactile measuring methods. The new 1.3 MP colour USB camera system replaces the analogue frame grabber adopted in former systems, offering a vastly improved resolution. Additionally, the manufacturer improved the captured images in terms of their colours, and thus boost convenience in use. The customer gains from the seven-step zoom lens unit with change-type objectives, covering a wide total magnification range. For all three light – segmented ring light, coaxial light and stage light – sources the engineers adopted white-LEDs. The system is delivered with the QVPAK v12.1 software, technically capable of making most of the sophisticated programs. It will enter the portfolio along with an extensive range of options and accessories.
